Trump not morally fit to be president

Posted March 07, 2016 11:00 pm

Does Donald Trump have the moral compass to lead America? He has bragged about having multiple affairs and three wives. He has mocked and ridiculed the disabled. He has mocked the Pope, women, Muslims, Hispanics, African-Americans, and POWs. He has not disavowed the approval of the KKK. He has claimed to be an evangelical Christian, but declares he has never done anything wrong and has never asked God to forgive him. The basic definition of an evangelical is a person who has acknowledged their sin and has asked Christ to forgive them. Trump and Jesus are only people I have heard of who claims to be sinless.

He has continually lied and not recanted. He would be the moral equivalent of Joe McCarthy, George Wallace and Adolf Hitler. Like them, he appeals only to the anger and fear in people. He is a mean, self-absorbed man. He is not morally fit to be president.
